A few other former Playground-hosted WPT Champions participated in this first Tournament of Champions, including Jared Mahoney (2015 WPT Montreal), Sheraz Nasir (2015 WPT CSC), Amir Babakhani (2013 WPT CSC), and Jonathan Roy (2012 WPT Montreal). In addition there were several other players we know well at Playground Poker Club: David Ormsby, Matt Salsberg, Tony Dunst, and of course Players Club members Phil Laak and Antonio Esfandiari.
Play will resume tomorrow (April 24th) at 4pm and there will be a live stream with commentary and analysis by Tony Dunst and Vanessa Selbst. You can follow the action via the WPT website.
